Chelsea men's manager Maurizio Sarri said on Friday that he had watched the Blues' 1-0 victory over Fiorentina, and the former Napoli boss was left disgusted by the comments.

"I watched the game, she's a very good midfielder, she scored," he told a news conference.

"About the situation, it's not acceptable, it's disgusting.

"I don't know what else to say. I don't use them [social media platforms], I think you can use for work, not for socialising. I have trouble speaking to my friends on the phone, I like to see them face-to-face. It's not my world."

Carney and Chelsea are next in action on Sunday, when they face Birmingham City in the Women's Super League.
